    So what is the term for the large Israeli faction that seeks to occupy Palestine, has no problem stealing land or bombing children? Basically the people in charge now?

      You’re not allowed to talk about that.

      The Zionist community has tried really hard to conflate Zionism with Jewish identity, to the point where anything critical of Israel and Netanyahu’s regime is seen as antisemitic.

      The word for this was literally never zionists. Zionism is simply the belief that the state of Israel, as a political entity, should exist.

        Thank you, I stand corrected on that point.

        So what is the term for the current people in charge who have no problem bombing civilians, killing children and stacking land through occupation?

      To be clear, I have no interest in arguing this point. I only want to add context.

        Not trying to argue, I’ve just anyways assumed the Zionists were the label they themselves used to describe themselves. Is it the Israeli far right? It’s obviously not all Israel, I know many Israeli’s are just as horrified by the treatment by Palestinians as other people.
